What a terrible lecture. If you wanted a serious talk on nootropics, you should look elsewhere. He has a cursory understanding of most processes in the body. He repeatedly makes unsourced, questionable (e.g., ignoring amyloid buildup in Alzheimer's and claiming he knows how to "reverse Alzheimer's"), borderline folk wisdom, and downright pseudoscience (e.g., at 0:12:14, his slide suggests that "vaccinations cause autism," which was never a rigorously tested hypothesis and ended up being a hoax).

Dear , @ogrish84 , Look here Mr. "Smells Like B.S." ,What an irony it is that you respond with such a subjective opinionated commentary. Critical thinking?At least post us a link with an intelligent rebuttal?You haven't responded with any information falsifying ANY the claims! I'm here to learn! I find this subject fascinating.I will fact check it ! P.H.D's can sell snake oil too..Where is your PHD guy?I find much of this information to resonate with my limited first hand experience.

WHAT???..."Go off of all milk product...all egg....dairy".....since when are eggs dairy? This is the biggest load of shit on youtube. I can't believe Google would host this nonsense.

Excellent lecture, exceptional information. Thank you Google for creating a space where people can share their life work. No hero worship in this space and no institutional faschisim either. .

[luisbocaletti]

Shame on you google for giving a platform to such a horrible speaker. Did you know that CERI, the organization the speaker belongs to, is listed in the Questionable Organizations page of the QuackWatch website?

Also, the host says he got invited because he seemed to be the smartest person in smart life forum. Really?? How about checking his credentials!!
